Lincoln International (NYSE: LCLN) reported that its Lincoln Private Market Index (LPMI), which tracks enterprise values of U.S. private equity‑backed companies, rose 1.9% in Q2 2026, recouping most of Q1’s 2.2% decline. The gain was driven by EBITDA growth, which offset modest multiple compression, while S&P 500 enterprise values rose about 15%, helped by AI‑related optimism.
Private company fundamentals improved: 70.7% reported revenue growth and 64.0% EBITDA growth, with year‑over‑year revenue and EBITDA up 6.9% and 5.6%, and EBITDA adjustments falling to 23.2% of adjusted EBITDA. Entry multiples for new buyouts averaged 12.0x EBITDA in 1H 2026 versus 12.8x in 1H 2025. Software revenue and EBITDA growth stayed near 6.8% and 6.5%, but high‑LTV software loans fell to 87.1% of par. Credit conditions remained broadly stable, with a covenant default rate of 2.7% versus a 3.9% six‑year average, even as lender takeovers reached $22.3 billion in 1H 2026 and secondary trading of private loans increased, mostly above 95% of par. Lincoln’s levered return analysis suggested private credit portfolios could absorb about 9% cumulative principal loss before IRRs fall to zero.
Lincoln International (NYSE: LCLN) reported record second quarter 2026 revenues of $225.7 million, up 51% year over year, and first-half revenues of $383.5 million, up 36%. Investment Banking Advisory revenue rose 56% to $177.7 million and Valuations and Opinions grew 35% to $47.9 million, driven by higher M&A activity, demand for private market valuations, and the October 2025 MarshBerry acquisition.
